ForestGEO welcomes a new data intern!

ForestGEO is pleased to introduce a new intern!

Caroline Kittle is joining
ForestGEO as an intern based in Washington, D.C. at the Smithsonian National
Museum of Natural History. She is a senior at George Mason University in
Fairfax, VA completing a degree in Applied Global Conservation. In the Spring
of 2017, she was introduced to the network as a ForestGEO practicum student
with Erika Gonzalez while studying at the Smithsonian-Mason School of
Conservation (SMSC) at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI) in
Front Royal, VA. There, she helped gather and organize data on tree growth and
daily weather, as well as helping with the creation and installation of
dendrobands in the ForestGEO-SCBI plot. Caroline will be working with the
Director, Stuart Davies, to collect data regarding tree species present in the
Asian plots.
